We review progress, since publication of the book``Collisional effects on molecular spectra:
Laboratory experiments and models, consequences for applications"(Elsevier, Amsterdam …

Besides their strong contribution to weather forecast improvement through data assimilation,
thermal infrared sounders onboard polar-orbiting platforms are now playing a key role for …

Retrievals of atmospheric composition from near-infrared measurements require
measurements of airmass to better than the desired precision of the composition. The …

Context. Previous research has indicated that high amounts of ozone (O 3) and oxygen (O 2)
may be produced abiotically in atmospheres with high concentrations of CO 2. The abiotic …

Intensity and line shape parameters which predict spectral lines with absolute accuracies
better than 0.3% have been determined for transitions of the 30012← 00001 band of …

The space-based Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO) mission will achieve global
measurements needed to distinguish spatial and temporal gradients in the CO2 column …

In a previous series of papers, a model for the calculation of CO2-air absorption coefficients
taking line-mixing into account and the corresponding database/software package were …

We describe atmospheric validation of 1.61 μm and 2.06 μm CO2 absorption coefficient
databases for use by the Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO-2). The OCO-2 mission will …

Precise modelling of infrared absorption by carbon dioxide is of primary importance for
radiative transfer calculations in CO2-rich atmospheres like those of Venus and Mars …

We perform dual frequency comb laser absorption spectroscopy of CO 2 at high pressure
and temperature, and use the spectra to test and improve CO 2 line mixing models and their …
